By-products of milling white flours are unprocessed wheat bran and wheat germ. They add color, nutrition, and fiber to breads.
Wheat germ, Wheat Berries, Barley and Millet

Wheat Bran is the outer husk of the wheat, which is separated from the white flour during processing. Add a spoonful or two to your favorite recipe to provide extra fiber, texture and flavor. Or, substitute the wheat bran for part of the white bread flour.
Wheat Germ is the embryo or heart of the grain kernel. You can use it in its natural state or toast it for a nutty flavor.
Cracked Wheat is the whole wheat kernel, broken down into rather large pieces.
The pieces are hard so it is best to soften them.
Bulghur Wheat is made from the grain of wheat. It is partially processed by boiling, which cracks the wheat kernel. You can add bulghur wheat to doughs to provide a crunchy texture.
